Aunt Lillian's Tea Cakes Sister-Friend's Great-Aunt Lillian is her role-model for living vitally, with both exuberance and dignity. When Sister-Friend was a little girl, "Aunt Lillian" would help me make these soft cookies. Not too sweet, they are wonderful at a tea party, or anytime. 1/2 cup white sugar 1 cup brown sugar 2 eggs 1 cup shortening 1/3 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 2 cups + 2 Tbsp flour 1 tsp vanilla Mix ingredients til just blended. DO NOT ROLL OUT DOUGH. Drop from spoon. Bake 375 ° 10-12 minutes. Sister-Friend feels that recipes are gifts ... familiar recipes, in fact, are like friends, themselves.
